Great SUV

The Rav4 is an SUV at a reasonable price with great features. The car was dependable and had amazing pickup for a 4 cylinder engine. Also owned a 2004!

Great small suv

This is a great suv. Great on gas and fits a lot of cargo. It is too small for a big family but perfect for a growing one.

Reliable for speed and comfort

I like this suv that can pick up the speed very quickly to merge into the high way traffic and also like the spacious seats in both passenger seats and cargo area.

One of the most reliable cars I have owned.

This vehicle is a great car to have with the family since it has enough space for 5 and also a great back compartment. The style of the car is amazing and the inside of it is very comfortable. Great Vehicle!

Best vehicle I have ever own!

My family has always been a Toyota family so when it came to my Corolla Sport needing to be replaced, a Toyota is what it had to be! I love the design both internally and externally of the RAV4! It is spacious in all the seats so my nieces carseats comfortably fit in the back. I love the space in the trunk and the ability to hide everything I have back there! This car is a huge upgrade from my previous vehicle and I am very happy with my purchase! I feel confident and know I have a reliable car because I'm driving a Toyota!

Most reliable SUV out there!

First let me start off by saying you never see Toyota's on the side of the road broke down! I only buy Honda, Toyota because these car's are so dependable I just bought a 2009 Toyota Rav4 with 158,000 miles and Wow! i'm in love with this SUV and the gas milage is great! I drive 30m to, and from school never worried about my Toyota breaking down, I will drive this suv anywhere. I highly recommend buying a RAV4 you will not be disappointed.

Fabulous SUV to own!

This smaller SUV gets great gas mileage, it's extremely comfortable to drive short and long distances, looks great, has lasted me many years with no issues, and has a lot of bells and whistles. The only minor problem I had was a rattle around the muffler. It's roomy, handles well in snow and on ice, and I've had no major mechanical or cosmetic issues. I would definitely recommend this vehicle.

LOOKING FORWARD TO OWNING A TOYOTA AGAIN

I THINK ITS UNFORTUNATE THAT TOYOTA PUT A HATCHBACK ON THE RAV4. I REALLY LIKE THE SIDE OPENING DOOR IN THE BACK. HOPING TO PUT ANOTHER 100,000 MILES ON THIS LITTLE MACHINE.
